Shortcuts aren’t just a little Applescript goodness that can be used to make droplets. Although you could do that. Shortcuts can be used to perform fairly complex atomic operations. In this session we’ll look at some of the work Damian Cavanagh has posted to his Github, and the crazy lengths he went to in order to have Shortcuts that work with device management options.

We have had so many wonderful guests on the Mac Admins Podcast, telling us about things they have created, workflows they have implemented or products they have integrated in their environments. It can be overwhelming to look at your own setup and want it to look like all the things you may have heard about here, or read about on slack, or watched someone present about at one of the many Mac Admins conferences around the world. Today we are going to talk about some tips that may help you to implement change.
